Time-Lapse Video Makes Formula SAE Chassis Fabrication Interesting |

We did have an electric car race team [www.megawattmotorworks.com] that was revived while I was there. I kick myself sometimes for not getting in on that. My priorities were different back then. Mostly had to do with booze and skirts.

Their fraternity hazing consisted of being blindfolded and flown a couple hours cross-country and left behind to find their way home. Good times.

My roommate and I cracked open the trailer to our schools 3-year-defunct team and revived it. Neither of us had the time to actually follow through, but we did a lot of groundwork and then handed it off to some great up-and-coming kids.
To anyone in college in engineering (particularly MEs): do this program, even if it means you have to take 5 years to graduate. A big role on an FSAE team will effectively guarantee you a job coming out of school.

We also had formula lightning (electric indy car on a prefab chassis, so an EE nerdlinger's wet dream)and snowmobile, but those weren't as interesting

The students also probably smoke more pot than the Toyota guys.
